YSL doesn't talk about Blur Primer extending the wear of foundation applied on top, but I think it does help a bit.

doesn't my skin look natural yet super radiant? It adds a bit of radiance to my bare skin, and in conjunction with the Touche Eclat Foundation, it creates a beautiful, very luminous base. " Ultimate luminosity": yes, I think it does make my skin more luminous. The texture of my skin looks more even, but it doesn't do anything to blur the redness or sunspots. This primer being a clear gel, it doesn't provide any coverage or color correction. " Skintone is more even": I beg to disagree. Some silicone primers make your foundation glide like a dream, I didn't feel like it was the case with this one. I can't say that it helped apply my foundation more easily though, I still had to buff to avoid streaks and get perfectly even coverage. " Skin texture feels smoother": true, it's a silicone primer after all! Skin feels softer and very smooth. With primer + foundation, they become hard to spot! On the other hand, it didn't really fill the lines around my mouth as well as some other primers I've tried. " Pores seem to be minimized": that is absolutely true! I have large pores on my cheeks, close to my nose, and they're clearly less visible after applying the Blur Primer. There is also no greasy sensation left once it has set (YSL does suggest to wait 10 seconds before applying foundation). I would even say that it feels slightly oily to the touch, although it doesn't look oily at all: once spread and set it looks almost matte, with just a very subtle, natural sheen, and the luminosity brought by the shimmer. Maybe it's due to the presence of the plant oils, but I feel like it's a little more wet and slippery. If you're afraid that the sparkles might turn you into a disco-ball, don't be, they're discreet enough to yield a subtle effect.įor me, the Touche Eclat Blur Primer feels a little different from your typical silicone primer.

The particles reflect the light and the general aspect of the primer is really fascinating! Once spread on my skin, the shimmer is hard to detect unless I'm in full sun or under a bright light. Touche Eclat Blur Primer is a clear gel with tiny flakes of golden shimmer. While it does smell nice, with a fairly strong white flower scent, this high amount of fragrance could make it problematic for sensitive skins. One thing you may notice here is that it contains a ton of fragrance (3rd ingredient). Proof in the ingredients list (ingredients are always in descending order of quantity in the product, the first ingredient being the one it contains the most of):Ĭyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone Crosspolymer, Fragrance, Zea Mays Oil/Corn Oil, Prunus Armeniaca, Kernel Oil/Apricot Kernel Oil, Passiflora Edulis Oil/Passiflora Edulis Seed Oil, Oryza Sativa Bran Oil/Rice Bran Oil, Calcium Sodium Borosilicate, Silica, Tin Oxide. It is, however, still a silicone-based primer: there are more silicones in this formula than vegetal oils. The presence of vegetal oils is uncommon and makes this primer formula unique. Packed with blur technology, this universal primer provides a subtle, golden shimmer for ultimate luminosity". It’s enriched with four nourishing oils-corn oil, apricot kernel oil, passiflora oil, and rice bran oil-to leave skin feeling incredibly soft without a greasy residue. " Touche Elcat Blur Primer preps skin for foundation application, creating an improved, refined appearance: pores seem to be minimized, skin texture feels smoother, and skintone is more even. Here's what YSL has to say about this new primer: It looks similar to the glass pump bottle of the Touche Eclat Foundation, which performs perfectly well. I'm testing it from a sample - not a deluxe sample but one that was made for me at a store in a tiny plastic jar, so I won't be able to comment on the packaging for you. After the foundation, the range is now being widened to include the Blur Perfector (a pore minimizing, smoothing balm-to-powder to use on top of makeup) and the Blur Primer I'll show you today. YSL is developing their Touche Eclat franchise, named after the cult illuminating pen. Happy Friday everyone! For this week's French beauty post, I have tested Yves Saint Laurent's newest primer that the brand launched a few weeks ago, Touche Eclat Blur Primer.
